Ok I'm not going to condemn this, because I understand it's their culture. Even if it comes off as more or less pedophilia to some western perspectives. Again tho not judging or condemning it. I do have some serious questions tho that I hope someone more familiar with the culture can explain. Why is it always underage school girls? What is wrong with adult woman? I don't mean older woman or cougars, I mean experienced adult woman from 20-30. I do not understand the fascination with girls that look 13-15 years old. Also I don't know if this is true hopefully someone can verify, is it true they have vending machines there that sell underwear because woman are second hand citizens/treated like objects that are frequently raped so the vending machines are there so they can get new underwear after the fact?

**NOTE** I do not know, and personally do not believe that last question is true. So I am only asking for verification. I've heard conflicting stories and there is a lot of weird porn out there so I am asking for input from anyone that has actual experience with the country/lives there.

Wish I could help but I know way too little. Just think of it being similar to the USA's fascination with College. Basically the peak of your life before you have to deal with the real world. The time you wish you could relive. Also they arent underage technically =P

The age of consent throughout Japan is generally 18,[citation needed] but 13 in certain circumstances, due to a combination of national and prefectural laws.

The Japanese Penal Code sets a minimal age of consent of 13.[38] However, all prefectures and districts have (largely similar) "obscenity ordinances" (淫行条例) that forbid "fornication" (淫行) with anyone under 18 years of age, but exempt sex in the context of a sincere romantic relationship or with parental approval.[39]
